Seeing as how command are the point man next to guard but have mobility that the guard lacks I would like to suggest a module that would focus everyone’s lock on onto the ship. Primary role of the command ship is to provide buffs for the team and soak damage while almost always being the first one into the fray and by having an ability to save other ships would fall into this role of command ship. To have a module that has everyone lock on to you would be invaluable to the team and also have a risk factor to it. If other people would have suggestions that would make this better or worse for the game please post because i would like to hear what people would say about this ability.
an ability to protect his engineers from focus fire ?
A global taunt you say? I think that’s a pretty neat idea. It doesn’t force players to shoot at the Command, but it would provide a few seconds of distraction critical for teammates to find cover. If we’re talking range on such a module, true global would be interesting if paired with a clause such as how the lock only transfers to the Command if the Command is within lock range.
still think we should find ways of killing healer squads easier before adding modules that complements them.
Ahh! you mean like the passive module the engy-frig has always built in (invisible 5th slot). ;)wt
I Like that Idea. Cooldown should be at least 120 sec. to prevent spam-abuse.
the radius would probably be around 3000k not global. It would help everyone and not just the Engi frigates. Also you have to think that you have to give up one of you actives to even put it on your ship.

Yes, a radius would be much better, considering lock range simply depends on whether or not the ship is seen by an ally. We shouldn’t discourage spotting enemies. It should have a long cooldown and/or short range or else it would be really annoying.
